I never read the Dune books and have zero memory of that TV mini-series that I know I watched once upon a time. So I really only mildly cared for that big Dune: Part 1 movie a few years ago. It was big, it was pretty, but it was just Part 1 and that was a stinker. Welp, Part 2 is coming later this year! I’ll need to find an internet recap video so that I’m prepared.

Looks pretty good. Looks a lot more personable, with a lot more emotion and actual character development. I’m all for that. The CGI looks great, the characters look like fun, there are some weird black and white sequences that are clearly gonna be a trip. Looks like an overall quality time at the theater, hopefully. And then we can all have future Dune watch parties that are 6 hours long.

Dune: Part 2 comes to theaters on Nov. 3.
